Wow – where else can you go rafting and skiing on the same weekend? I love living here:) We went rafting on a section of the Colorado known as Ruby Horsethief. As we were able to get on the river at Loma on Friday we were able to have Saturday as a layover day and did two really cool hikes. Our friend Carl wanted to take his boat so ours stayed at home this time. He does have a cool boat!

We camped at Blackrocks which is one of my favourite river camping places.

Then on Monday we went skiing on Aspen Mountain which was open for skiing all weekend! We were super lucky with the weather and skiied in sunshine all but our first run! Unbelievably good snow cover and lots of fun bumps to play in.

Hi. I moved to the Aspen area from Australia in 1997 and have a daughter born right here in Aspen in 2000. I teach skiing (for the past eighteen seasons) and am a Real Estate Advisor with Engel & Völkers Roaring Fork.. I love to ski, snowboard, horse-ride, raft, and hike with our dog Sheila. This valley offers so much and one day I may also take up golf or fishing!
